SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
Dr. Eichelberger shared updates from the past month, highlighting the outstanding work of our principals and their school improvement plan presentations. He expressed pride in their daily commitment, noting that leading schools can be both the most rewarding and the most challenging job.
He also celebrated the district’s continued academic growth over the past two years, emphasizing that Piedmont is on the right track and well-positioned to build on that progress.
Enrollment continues to rise, with 105 more students this October compared to last year. This increase stands out as many districts across the state are seeing declines. While last year’s projections expected growth of about 225 students, the district remains steadily expanding and is preparing for continued growth with the opening of a new intermediate school next year.
